Deep Frame Nucleus (Nuc) Colony - Pick up May 10th, 2025

Bee. honey+hive apiaries have been inspected by the NC Apiary Inspector and permitted to sell honeybees in North Carolina.

Raised in Brevard, NC, each 5 Frame Nuc will contain:

• TONS of honey bees! All 5 frames will be covered with bees.
• 3 frames of brood in various stages of development (eggs, open larva, and capped brood).
• 2 frames of resources(honey and pollen).
• 1 laying and marked queen, freshly mated in 2025, from our very best stock.

More Info:

Nucs will come in a waxed cardboard box and be sealed(with ventilation) for transport. We recommend the back of a pickup truck.

The backseat or trunk of a car can also work. If this is the case you may want to consider purchasing a “mesh transport bag” of some sort to bring with you. 

Please call 828-553-5021 with any questions prior to ordering.

Please note that we cannot guarantee there won’t be a few bees that leak out-they are pretty amazing escape artists!
